Lock Up Your Teacher

Columbus High School in Iowa did it last year. They put teachers on the school roof on a drizzly, cold day. (Seriously!)  Each donated item added a minute of lock-up time.  The result? 6+ hours on the roof!  Dude, we all have teachers we’d like to see locked up…

Hot Chocolate Stand

Pick a good location. Get fun people to work it.  Pick a good time — like right in front of school in the morning or in front of the mall on a Saturday.  Advertise it with posters a few days before: “Want some hot cocoa? It’ll cost you a pair of jeans!”  Give extra marshmallows to those who contrib mad threads.

Sponsor a jeans sculpture contest

Get crazy prizes donated. The person or group with the craziest sculpture, gets the loot.
